Our Take

Picture this: a quintet of musicians, led by the enigmatic Sokratis Sinopoulos, weaving together a tapestry of sounds that defy conventions and push the boundaries of traditional jazz. That's what you'll find on "Metamodalin," the latest offering from the Sokratis Sinopoulos Quintet.

From the opening notes of the title track, it's clear that this album is a journey into the unknown. Sinopoulos' mastery of the lyra, a traditional Greek instrument, adds a unique and ethereal quality to the music, transporting listeners to a world where time and space cease to exist.

The quintet's chemistry is palpable throughout the album, with each member bringing their own distinct voice to the table. From the intricate drum patterns of Dimitris Emmanouil to the soulful saxophone solos of Yann Keerim, every note is executed with precision and passion.

But what sets "Metamodalin" apart is its fearless experimentation. Tracks like "Mystic Dance" and "Cosmic Blues" blur the lines between genres, incorporating elements of modal jazz, avant-garde, and even hints of traditional Greek folk music.

In a world where conformity reigns supreme, the Sokratis Sinopoulos Quintet dares to be different. "Metamodalin" is a sonic journey that will challenge your preconceptions and leave you questioning what it means to create music in the 21st century. Buckle up, dear listeners, because this is one ride you won't want to miss.
